Aqueous Electroplating of Aluminum and Other Active Metals

摘要

1. Aluminum based coatings can be carried out in aqueous media 2. Changed the reduction potential by 0.5 V using our ligand approach. 3. Al/Zr mix at lower current densities is metallic with high Zr metal content. 4. Deposition is carried out in aqueous media 5. Al/Zr deposits at higher current densities the deposits are ceramic in nature. 6. Additive screening is currently being carried out to further improve the deposits.
